Empowering a Platform of Viral Growth at Restaurants


Success does leave clues and inviting customers to become interactive and participatory brand ambassadors utilizing an underground menu is a success clue that should not be over looked according to Foodservice Solutions® Tacoma, WA based Grocerant Guru® Steven Johnson.
Creating ‘buzz’ takes planning. Potbelly Sandwich Shop famous Underground Menu is not an accident. With each new year comes new sandwiches a new desserts or two, that can become key to driving buzz around the underground menu thus fueling sales and consumer buy-in. Let’s look at what’s new this year:
New sandwiches include:
1.        Barnyard—This one’s got all the meat—ham, turkey, Angus roast beef, salami, bacon, meatballs and Swiss cheese toasted on regular bread
2.        Cheeseburger—You can order a cheeseburger at a sandwich shop? A mountain of meatballs and cheddar is toasted then topped with fresh lettuce, tomato and mayo on regular bread.
New Dessert includes:
3.        Dream Bar Sundae—Dreams come true, and gooey—A toasty warm Dream Bar topped with ice cream, whipped cream, chocolate syrup and a cherry on top
4.        Cookie Collision Shake—built for the cookie monsters, a hand-dipped ice cream shake blended with OREO and butter cookies, topped with more OREO cookies. This shake can also be enjoyed a little guilt free with low-fat frozen yogurt just ask for it in a smoothie.
Below is the complete menu:
